"..I had a new beekeeper ask me today about hubam clover. I'd never heard of the stuff, but from a brief Google search it appears to be the greatest thing since - well, sweet clover, which it closely resembles in bloom except that it's white.

Anybody have experience with it? Is there a downside to it?..." 

Eugene,

The below link might help.   It looks like what we call white sweet clover here in Illinois or least a relative to it.   It usually blooms after the yellow sweet clover.  Usually along roadsides or where the soil has been disturbed.
